There’s nothing I love more than a good festival cocktail. As you guys saw last week, my inner Martha Stewart loves to come out at holidays and drinks are not off limits. I’ve definitely upped my hostess game in the past year and have had a lot of fun shaking up my own cocktails at home.
Most recently I made Pomegranate Cranberry Moscow Mules for our holiday party and no surprise they were a total hit! Prep was a breeze and the ingredients were minimal too– keep on reading for details and instructions!

There’s many reasons why I love a Moscow Mule– it’s a very light drink and easy to customize with flavored vodka or what fruit you use to garnish. Typically I’ll just make it with lime wedges and ginger beer, but since ’tis the season,’ I added a splash of cranberry pomegranate juice along with an orange slice and fresh cranberries for color.
Isn’t it such a pretty drink? Pinterest-worthy right? Traditionally Moscow Mules are served in a copper mug, but I think this drink would look equally as nice in a highball glass. Trust me, it tastes as good as it looks!
